[QUOTE="usausa, post: 617388, member: 42578"] LG, note that the 3rd place team will play wither the 1st place squad from 1B or Netherlands in a one-off to determine the repechage spot...right now, Netherlands will play either Germany, Moldova (the in-form team of 2013 from this division), or Poland (very near elimination) for the right to play the 1A 3rd place. Here's the updated look at 1B: Germany 8 matches, 29 pts, 2 matches left (vs. Czech Republic, at. Sweden) Moldova 7 matches, 25 pts, 3 matches left (at. Poland, vs. Ukraine, at. Czech Republic) Poland 8 matches, 21 pts, 2 matches (vs. Moldova, at. Ukraine) Ukraine 8 matches, 19 pts *ELIMINATED Sweden 9 matches, 14 pts *ELIMINATED Czech Republic 8 matches, 6 pts *ELIMINATED Moldova at Poland obviously a big game, first game of the 2014 season for 1B. Moldolva won by 4 last year (2013), and have been gaining better results as 2013 wore on. They won all 5 matches in 2013, with bonus points. Unfortunately for Moldova their loss in November 2012 to Germany is their downfall. Even though they beat Germany this season with a bonus point, they lose out on the points differential tie breaker (Germany over two matches outscored Moldova 47-44), so tying on table points is no good for Moldova, they must bonus point win and/or hope Germany slips up against the two weakest squads. Netherlands vs. 1B winner is scheduled for May 10, 2014 in Netherlands, but as with the IRB/FIRA, that date could change. That winner vs. 1A 3rd place hasn't been given a date yet, only 2014. That ultimate winner will gain the repechage spot. [/QUOTE]
